Hi Nicole, I was on hand last November 8, 2003 when the salt water vessel BBC Russia hit the lock wall while approaching the Mac Lock upbound. The vessel sustained very little damage and was loaded with a cargo of steel coils at the time bound for the Algoma Steel Export Dock in Sault, ONT. If you want to read more about this, check the boatnerd news page and go under the Archives to November 2003, and scroll down to November 9 to the the story "BBC Russia hits lock wall" Here is a link to a photo I took as the BBC Russia hit the lock wall. http://www.boatnerd.com/news/newpictures03b/BBCR-d-11-08-03-sb.jpg If you have any questions please feel free to e-mail me at the address above.
